  Statistics of Covid-19

  Worldwide there is 100M cases and about 25% of those cases are from the US. Of the 25.4M cases in the US 3.2M are from California and about 66,000 of those cases comes from Ventura County. In the world right now there are about 2.15M deaths. In the US there are 423K deaths. In California there are 37,500 deaths, and in Ventura County there are about 500. I have been affected by these statistics because my cousin got the virus a couple of months ago and he was pretty sick. He and his entire school had to quarantine for two weeks and someone had to go to the hospital because the school forgot to feed them for two weeks. My final thoughts on Covid-19 are that the virus has changed are daily live for probably forever. It is a terrible virus and I cannot wait for it to finally be gone.

  My experience with/symptoms of Covid

  The symptoms of Covid are very similar to the symptoms of the flu. You usually get a fever, body aches, it is harder to breath, etc. Unlike the flu however Covid makes you lose your sense of taste. Of all the people that I know, only three people I know have gotten the virus one was my history teacher, another was my friend, and the last was my cousin. My friend remained mostly asymptomatic the whole time he was sick. My cousin got pretty sick and had a high fever and had a lot of trouble breathing. Thankfully he recovered and is okay now.

  Procedures of the Virus

  When the virus came it changed everyone's daily life a far bit. Now in most places we go we have to follow many strict procedures. For example, at school we are not allowed to go down the stairs inside, we have to go around outside. This can make things pretty annoying as it sometimes takes a long time to get around outside. We also have to wear masks and stay socially distanced. I am okay with these procedures as they are proven to help. It is not just school that has lots of procedures however, all stores have procedures and they strictness varies from every store you go to. In conclusion, I am okay with the procedures because I believe they help.

  My Experience with Virtual School

  My experience with virtual school was weird at first, but As I did it for longer, I eventually got into a pretty solid routine. I would wake up at 7:30 every day to get ready for school. I would go to school on zoom from 8:00 to 2:45. After that I would do my homework and sports practices. Then I would go to sleep and start the whole routine over again. The hardest part about virtual school for me was that it was hard to pay attention and stay focused throughout the whole class.

  My Discovery of the Virus

  When I heard first heard about Covid-19 I was sitting in my room on my phone. I saw a video by the southern morning china post about a mysterious virus.. They said it came from a shopping center in China. As more past, it was found that the virus came from a bat and I was very surprised by this because I did not know that they had bats in Chinese shopping centers.
